just 1 hour earlier, i got DAG error when mining ETH with RX570 4GB (my rig have 6 cards). i already set virtual RAM to 40 GB but it still keep telling me that DAG ERROR

Cannot allocate big buffer for DAG.
Cannot write buffer for DAG.

Any idea please?

I also received that error with windows 10 v1803. I am installing windows 10 v1703.

hey guys, got a weird one today.

We built a new mining rig with rx 470 4GB (MSI Gaming X, Samsung memory and yeah, we're lucky enough to have free electricity), we copied the 1500 memory straps from 1500 to 2000 (like we always do), but for some odd reason we can't OC our cards memory above 1850Mhz without having the good old GPU#X got incorrect share etc... which means our cards are stuck around 27.2Mh/s.

You guys got any idea what the problem might be ? We have downvolted anything yet so our cards are definitely not power starved, I'm just a bit confused.

First of all, you have free elec
Even if those cards are doing 15Mh/s youll have good profit...

But ok

What is your config? Win ver., driver ver., etc

Yeah, I'm definitely not complaining about our situation (the rig belongs to me and my brother), I just thought I could squeeze a lil bit more out of our cards since I saw a lot of people having around 30mh/s with the same cards.

So we're using Windows 10 (with the latest update), the latest Claymore version as well and the latest stable AMD drivers (18.12.2). In terms of hardware we are using :

ASrock H81 Pro BTC 2.0
4GB of DDR3
a 1000W Aerocool Gold+ PSU
a Celeron G1840 CPU
and of course 6* MSI Gaming X RX 470@4GB

I managed to slightly increase the memory clock to 1860Mhz but I can't go beyond that.

those cards are bios modded or you are using an afterburner to set the clocks?

win10 pro 64bit 1607 ltbs not working, only with -eres 0
win10 pro 64bit 1703 working well

cards are 470,570 and 480 4GB.

There is no profit in that case, profit is only after the gpu was paid off which if we think about 99% of gpus were never paid off due to the eth 15 times crash, what was the point of a 300 days roi if eth crashed 15 times, the 300 days became 300 x 15 = 4500 days = 12 years and if we really think about as every year that gpu has a depreciation, 99% of gpus were never paid off, will never be paid off and the losers are the miners, the only winners is the people who buy eth cheap like this from miners who has no choice but to sell at this price to pay for their debs or other things like loan and who knows they thought easy money would last forever, their easy money methodology back fired, game over for them and 99% of people who bet on mining.

Their only salvation is to hold all the eth they mined before the crash and never sell until eth price returns to $1000 plus.

Do you have 3gb or 6gb 1060 cards?
Try claymore with "-eres 0" parameter

The fact of the matter is that no. I`ve got rig with 4 1080Ti and this problem is only with one card, the others are ok. I try all possible flags and nothing helps. I`ve found this solution

Code:

Nvidia Control Panel -> 3D Settings -> Set PhysX configuration -> Select a Physx processor -> choose your graphics card instead of leaving it on auto-select.

Just use Ethminer (https://github.com/ethereum-mining/ethminer/releases), I've tried 0.17.0 rc2 and I'm very happy with it, try it yourself.
No point in using Claymore's miner which hasn't been updated since July.

Is anyone still mining with r9 390 if so what are your hashrate I'm only getting 25 which I could swear I was getting 30 awhile back, maybe I'll switch back to blockchain beta drivers

I am getting the same issues with my R9 290. I started noticing the hashrate decrease about 6 months ago. Seems its a DAG thrashing issue like with the R9 280X and the RX series before the AMD issued the fix. However the blockchain drivers make no difference with the R9 290 only the RX 470/570.

Nothing you can do really. AMD won't issue a fix because they are old GPUs and they probably want miners to buy the newer GPUs instead.

Due to this bug, its no longer profitable mining with these GPUs.

same problem here, 290X - now i have only 22MH/s at stock and 26.7MH/s with big overclock and nothing helps Sad

i remember i got around 30MH/s before year

maybe bios change to 390x could help?

I am getting the same issues with my R9 290. I started noticing the hashrate decrease about 6 months ago. Seems its a DAG thrashing issue like with the R9 280X and the RX series before the AMD issued the fix. However the blockchain drivers make no difference with the R9 290 only the RX 470/570.

Nothing you can do really. AMD won't issue a fix because they are old GPUs and they probably want miners to buy the newer GPUs instead.

Due to this bug, its no longer profitable mining with these GPUs.

Is anyone still mining with r9 390 if so what are your hashrate I'm only getting 25 which I could swear I was getting 30 awhile back, maybe I'll switch back to blockchain beta drivers
